No flooding around the base of carb. I detailed the rebuild on this forum back in March. It's been working fine since then. It's a Carter YF.

I have the original glass bowl pump which I may rebuild if I can find a quality kit for it.

The current AutoZone pump deletes the glass bowl. I haven't taken it apart to look inside. I assume it has a filter screen similar to the original pump.

Yes HRL, you're right about the placement of the fuel filter. Are there any short ones that will thread into the carburetor and allow the steel line to screw into it?
